More liquids and less TV: remedies for childhood headaches
Giving a child a drink might be a quick and easy way to help fight headaches.
Letting the child spend less time in front of the computer or TV might also help the pain, advises Peter Kropp, a professor at the Institute for Medical Psychology at the University Clinic of Rostock in Germany. Making sure children get enough sleep is another possible remedy.
Other possible treatments include massaging the child with oil or applying ice. The main goal, of course, is to reduce stress, says Kropp. That can be achieved with laughing exercises in front of a mirror or relaxation exercises, which can be built into family rituals.
Scientists think inactivity, being overweight, sitting too much in front of computers and TVs and overloaded daily schedules all leads to childhood headaches. Some surveys say that more than 20 per cent of pre-school-age children complain about headaches. By the end of the elementary school years, that figure has risen to 50 per cent.
